Warren and Josh Jackson trades were horrible. Gave up Melton and draft picks for no good reason whatsoever

Oubre deal was total luck, he was not the intended target.

Cam Johnson pick was a good pick, but there were other players just as good also available. Not a great pick.

Deal for Baynes and Ty Jerome pick was awful. Could have just resigned Holmes for 5 million a year.

Cam Payne was signed by Monte - Jones had nothing to do with it.

Re Sign of Dario at full mid level was an overpay - period.

Torrey Craig was a good deal.

Jae was a good deal.

Drafting of Jalen Smith over Halliburton was abysmal.

No attempt whatsoever to get a big man at the deadline despite a glaring need.

No signing of undrafted free agents to even fill our second 2 way spot.
This. is. crazy. talk.

Getting rid of Jackson and Warren were necessary and freed up cap space.

Oubre deal. No such thing as luck. Skill often looks like "luck"

Cam Johnson was a great pick and he turned one pick into two players, Johnson and Saric.

Cam Payne signed by Monty? Who is the GM? The coach doesn't sign players.

Saric was paid about what you pay an OK big man in the modern NBA. Not a massive overpay.

Jalen over Halliburton was a mistake, but that happens.

No attempt to get a big man? How do you know that? Do you have observation on Jones day-to-day? That's a ridiculous comment.

CP3 4 yr deal is most likely structured as previously reported of $30 mil per with last year having only $10 mil guaranteed or as a TO. Basically same as the 3/$90 that everyone was thinking.

Okay let’s go out and snag two bigs with MLE and BAE and resign Nader and go win a championship next season!

Happy for Craig but I really loved him on this team. Maybe we can trade for him for nothing again. Lol.

Kelly Olynyk to the freaking Detroit Pistons for the MLE. How the heck are teams like the Pistons and Knicks getting such good players for the MLE when a championship contender like the Suns are reportedly left waiting for bargains to come in to fill their front court holes?

I’m not big on him. I seem to be in the minority I suppose but that’s a lot for him IMO.

I'm in agreement especially since the Mavericks spent a lot of their salary space.

It appears $30 million per season is the going rate for star point guards.

Lowry is the perfect fit for Miami. That team Will be scrappy as ever next season
Yup. The eastern conference is no longer a joke with Miami, nets, bucks, hawks. Oh and the train wreck of a team that finished with the #1 seed, sixers.

Lots of Craig replacements coming off the board as well as bigs. What do we have cooking?

Yeah, but who the heck will be left that wants to take it from the Suns (as opposed to the likes of the Pistons and Knicks)?
